We Hold Regular Contests On Our Myspace Page!

We at Rivertown Entertainment are firm believers that our Myspace page should have active participation. In order to help with this, we will be holding regular contests that all of our friends on Myspace can enter.

We have some extra one sheet from THE DARK KNIGHT, and I am crazy enough to actually give three of them away rather than sell them. We will give one away at each of the following shows we are doing in October/November:

10/21: GVSU fundraiser show, Allendale, MI

10/26: 24 Hours Of Terror, Chicago, IL

11/23-4: Xcape Con, Flint, MI

Look for details at the show at our booth.

Congratulations to Gwydion of Gand Rapids, Michigan, who won our last contest by placing a film quote with our piece of junk van. Gwydion won $20 in credit toward anything that he desires out of our ebay store . Our May contest winner was Pastor of Muppets from Youngstown, Ohio, who received two T-shirts from our ebay store.

We will be sending out regular bulletins about our contests. Keep your eyes peeled as we will keep you informed.

I Am Always Buying Movie Memorabilia...Have Some To Sell?

If you work for a movie theater and/or video store and you get promotional materials given to you, I would like to buy items from you! Many theaters and stores allow their employees to take home posters and other promotional materials free of charge all the time and simply throw away any items left over after they are finished promoting the film the poster is for.

If you can get promotional materials from your job without getting in trouble with your boss (please don't steal or take excessive stuff without their permission), I will buy it from you. I am ALWAYS buying promotional materials and will need a lot more items with the expansion that I am planning over the next year, and it is a lot easier for me to purchase it from local sources rather than chasing down items all over the country.

I will also buy your personal collection if you are in the market to sell. You may send me a list of what you have to sell through Myspace at our email address bmoviejunkie@yahoo.com. If we wouldn't be interested then I will do my best to hook you up with a source that may be able to help.

Rivertown Entertainment and Charity Work

We at Rivertown Entertainment firmly believe that it is our responsibility as a business to help out those less fortunate. Because of this, we donate money regularly to our local rescue missions, do fundraisers for a hunger and homelessness advocacy group, and donate money and posters to various charities.

We ask you to consider joining us in helping out those people who are less fortunate than ourselves. Please get involved in your local area by making a monetary donation to your local rescue mission or food pantry and/or to volunteer your time once a week or month to a cause that your conscious agrees with. Changing society for the better starts with the person you see every day in the mirror.

The missions we donate money to is Mel Trotter Ministries and Guiding Light Mission, both in our home base of Grand Rapids, Michigan. Feel free to make a charitable donation to either of them, or choose a resuce mission or favorite charity in your neck of the woods.

Can I Pick Up My Order?

If you live close to the Grand Rapids, Michigan area and wish to pick up your ebay order, please contact us and we can arrange a time for you to pick up your order. There is no charge for this service, although all of our 49 cent posters will cost $1 minimum for pick-up. Please email us through ebay to get more details.

Can I Buy From You Outside of Ebay?

Although I would rather do all of our sales through our ebay store, you are welcome to purchase through us at shows and conventions we set up at. Other than that, we no longer sell outside of ebay.

We Take "Wish Lists"!

If you have a poster that you are looking for and we do not carry it, please email us through the Myspace page and let us know what it is. We buy items on a regular basis, and if we get in what you are looking for we will contact you before it hits ebay and give you the opportunity to purchase the item before we list it!

A gentleman on our Myspace page already took advantage of this, getting a one sheet of NIGHT OF THE COMET before we listed it to the public. We have also sold copies of POLTERGEIST III and PSYCHO II this way as well. Take advantage of this by getting us your list today!

We will take a maximum list of three items, since we may get extremely swamped as a result of this and I will not be able to handle huge laundry lists from die-hard collectors. The first ones who email us on an item will get first shot if there are multiple requests for a certain item. People will have 14 days FIRM to pay for the item or we will list it on ebay and/or make it available to another Myspace friend.

Any questions please feel free to ask.

Have A Huge Ticket Item You Want To Sell?

Do you have a poster that is ultra rare and/or extremely valuable that you wish to part with? Do you have a one sheet of a Three Stooges, early Disney, Elvis Presley, or 1950's science fiction poster that you just inherited or found at an estate auction? Maybe you think you may have a special poster or movie memorabilia item but you are not sure of its value?

If you feel that you have a large price movie memorabilia iten We would be happy to help you with it. First of all, we are happy to appraise the item free of charge by just sending us a few choice pictures of the item; you do not have to send the actual item to us. If you do indeed have a high price item, we will be willing to help you by selling the item through brokering with a larger dealer to get you the best price or selling the item through a high end auction house such as Christie's or Sotheby's. I will work with you to get you the best price possible for your rare collectible poster.

Interested people should contact us through email us at bmoviejunkie@yahoo.com ; please send a few deatiled pictures of the item so we can see it including a picture of the lower left corner where the NSS codes would be.

We can also sell other items for you as well such as comic books and the like; write us for details.

Can You Frame My Poster Purchase Or Have It Restored?

The answer is yes, we can frame your poster purchase or have it linen backed and professionally restored.

These archival frames are a safe, beautiful, and economic way to display your prized poster item. For one sheets only, we use a 29x43 black, anodized frame with 1.125 inch wide molding. The backing is white foam-board that is acid-free and buffered with a pH balance of 7.5-8.5 and a 10 mil crystal clear lexan window to protect the front of the poster that blocks 98% of UV rays. The frame will come fully assembled with your poster framed inside; frame will have predrilled holes for hanging vertically or horizontally and comes with four screws and four wall hangers.

Our price for framing service for a 27x41 one sheet will be $99 plus shipping; this is $50 to $100 cheaper than just about every other company I can find that provides this service. I will have an official price for this option postage-paid in a few days and will update this blog when I have an official price.

We also offer to have your product professionally linen backed and restored in case this is something you wish to do. This is a great way to take a valuable item that may be in less than perfect condition and restore it to pristine condition and therefore increase its value. Since this process varies from poster to poster I would have to see a picture of the item in question so that I can get a quote from the professional restorer that we would use.

Interested people should email us through here or at bmoviejunkie@yahoo.com.
